WITHAMSIDE UNITED PARISH
MONTHLY CALENDAR FOR PRAYER
Persevere in prayer, with minds alert
and with thankful hearts
Colossians 4:2
I COMMEND this revised prayer calendar to you for use in your daily prayers.
It is not offered as a fully comprehensive guide but as a means of stimulating us to hold our whole parish in loving prayer before our Heavenly Father.
Feel free to adapt it to your own patterns of praying. Thank you for your partnership in this vital work.
